Iris’s Shiny Happy Goodness List

January 12th, 2011

Meet Iris, Foiled Cupcakes’ Order Coordinator based in Utah:

I’m a cupcake junkie and I live for sharing cupcakes with people I love. I’m also really into big sunglasses, yoga pants and lately, running. Here are the things that made my shiny happy goodness list:

Favorite App - Fruit Ninja. If you don’t have it, you HAVE to get it!
Best way to get motivated - Running in the morning. Go, go, go!
Greatest tabloid - US Weekly. I should know. I’m a tabloid junkie.
Current obsession - Playing for Change - amazing music from people around the world
Last book I read - Love Walked In by Marisa de los Santos
Best kitchen investment - an AMAZING set of kitchen knives. Chop-chop-chop!
Last album I bought - Steven Stucki (he’s the new Jason Mraz)
My favorite Foiled Cupcakes flavors - Southern Belle & Ooey Gooey
The only way to eat a cupcake - Frosting first, then cake. I’m such a 5 year old, I know.

Talk to you soon!

FREE STUFF for Race to Wrigley-ers

April 5th, 2010

So I’m running my first official 5K in honor of Foiled Cupcakes’ 5K Twitter followers. And because this’ll be much more fun with lots and lots of people (and the best way to bring groups together is FREE STUFF), we at Foiled Cupcakes present “FREE STUFF for Race to Wrigley-ers.”

FREE STUFF - OPTION 1: Run the Race to Wrigley with the Foiled Cupcakes team.

FREE: FOILED CUPCAKES 5K T-SHIRT. Not a shameless branding logo shirt either. One you’ll look cool wearing long after race day. And it’s gonna be one of those soft ones that aren’t all awkward and bulky, too. (Yeah!)

HOW TO CLAIM FREE T-SHIRT: (Please follow instructions; we know you’re able!)
- Register for the Race to Wrigley by Saturday, 4/17.
- Email your race confirmation # to info@foiledcupcakes.com (subject: “RUN CUPCAKE RUN!”) along with your name, Twitter ID, shirt size preference.
- We’ll get back to you with details on where to meet before the race to get your t-shirt. And yeah, it’d be nice if you wore it. Just saying. :)

FREE STUFF - OPTION 2: Design our Foiled Cupcakes 5K t-shirt.

FREE: TWO “DOZEN OF OUR FAVORITES” CUPCAKES *AND* A PAIR OF CUBS TICKETS. (Too bad if you’re a Sox fan. This is the Race to Wrigley, after all.)

HOW TO WIN: If you’re a designer (or even if you’re not), submit a cool t-shirt design to info@foiledcupcakes.com by Friday, 4/16 at 12:00 p.m. The only real rules (other than the legal stuff):
-Incorporate Foiled Cupcakes’ 5K Twitter followers
-Put our logo on it (as obvious or innocuous as you like)
-Dimensions: 8.5 x 11.
How we’ll pick a winner: by voting, of course. We’re a cupcakeocracy.

FREE STUFF - OPTION 3: Come hang out after the race.

FREE: POST-RUN CUPCAKES. We’ve organized a brunch Tweetup at Rockit. We’ll provide cupcakes. Buy your own food and drinks.

HOW TO ATTEND: Sign up here and tell us you’re going. Show up and eat. Easy peasy.

Pick your favorite and join us! (And wish me luck that I don’t die during this little 3.1 mile race.)

Love to all,
Mari
